A trio of Manchester United stars have taken centre stage on Saturday evening, during Portugal’s meeting with the Czech Republic.
Fernando Santos’ men are, of course, currently locked in action.
In their latest Nations League outing, the Portuguese have made the trip to Prague, for a meeting with the aforementioned Czech Republic.
And, as things stand, the evening’s visitors look well on their way to all three points.
This comes owing to first-half strikes on the part of two members of Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United squad.
First on the scoresheet was the rejuvenated Diogo Dalot, who latched onto Rafael Leao’s pull back to slot home his first ever Portugal goal from close range:

On this occasion it was Mario Rui who proved the creator, bending a gorgeous delivery behind the Czech defence to allow Fernandes to slip in for a typically cool finish:
As alluded to above, though, it was not all positive for the Manchester United contingent lining out for Portugal at the Sinobo Stadium on Saturday evening.
In addition, before giving away a penalty (which was subsequently dragged wide by Patrik Schick), Cristiano Ronaldo was left with a nasty facial injury, evidence of which can be seen below:
